History & Myth Of The Koh-I-Noor
The Koh-I-Noor is one of the largest diamonds ever found, said to have been dug up in an Indian mine, though it later became part of the British royal family’s Crown Jewels.

This is the sixth level of Mementos and can be visually recognized by the dark orange aura proliferating the floors composing this section of the immensely long dungeon.

It is worth noting that other personas from Okumura’s Palace can also be found upon the Path of Adyeshach, so if players missed capturing a persona or two from this locale, they can potentially find them here.
